Classifying foods based on abundance of nutrients and antioxidants. Use this chart as a guide to ensure you’re not always deriving nutrients from the same old sources. Try adding super foods to you diet and find out how much better you feel. I think you will discover how much more delicious they can make recipes as well.

The following categorizes different food groups and classifies them according to nutritional density. These classifications are best supported by the research done to provide aggregate nutritional density indexes (ANDI scores.)

ANDI scores land on a scale from 1-1000 and are figured based on evaluating micronutrients such as: vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, antioxident capacities, and more. The food and scores are listed below by grocery store department as developed by Whole Foods and Eat Right America. A similar reference and a deeper understanding of why to eat like this can also be found in Dr. Joel Furhman’s book Super Immunity.
